Excuse me, I'm a bit confused about where my Bitcoin balance is actually stored. Could you please explain in a simplified manner? I've heard about wallets, but I'm not entirely sure if they're physical or digital. I'm also curious if my balance is kept on some sort of central server or if it's distributed across the network. Additionally, are there any specific measures I should take to ensure the security of my Bitcoins? Your expertise in this area would be greatly appreciated.

The information is immutable, meaning it cannot be altered or tampered with.
